Yeah yamo for trenin frees up 1.4M on the cap.

Then we would be 400k off enough which is legit send desharnais down and Broberg becomes the 7D

Smyth forced his way back here

Smyth force his way back but not for pennies on the dollar. We had to take on 6.25 million in cap without getting back a 1st round pick and basically gave LA the space needed to get Carter+Richards and win a Cup.

 

[Canovin]

Arizona will retain 50% but not take back a player

 

[FunkyChicken]

Seems like his normal skating

Practicing his backcheck.

Seravalli on Stauffer (Oilers related):
- Jesse trade was good; got rid of contract, didn't retain salary, and got an asset.
- Chychrun: Yotes don't want to take back contract. They've checked in on Parayko and Ekholm. Yotes looking for picks/prospects (combination of first/second and or first round prospects). Ekholm ask is for 2 first round picks; other pieces would be involved to make money work.
- On Parayko: he doesn't know what the ask is; Blues more concerned about money/cap, with him and other players, going forward; looking for an out.
- Preference on order of defenseman Oilers targeting: Chychrun, Ekholm, and Gavrikov.

Man it is insane the coyotes don’t want any money back like you will have a hard time getting your price if you don’t take dollars

Yup, ARI should be out of discussions if they can't take money back. Not sure why Holland would have Chychrun as top priority.

NSH works better especially if they like Yamamoto for some reason.

Yama+Kulak+1st + prospect

True but I’m saying it can happen lol

 

[bellagiobob]

What's with Arizona's obsession with not taking contracts back?

They will take contracts back, but only for players with large cap hits with minimum actual salary who aren't actually playing. Weber type contracts are their dream.

 

[Macblender]

If they did that then the deal is even better is chychrun costs us 2.3M

 

[Broberg Speed]

They're an unserious team not worthy of respect.

And their games aren't taken seriously, by anyone, so why are you stuck on Chychrun? The guy's not even playing, because the hockey isn't taken seriously.

And why wouldn't they want to take a contract, what do they have to lose, and it could even sweeten the pot a bit.

 

[Tarus]

He can sign there in the offseason, after a playoff run with the Oilers.

Why would the Oilers want someone who is content to soak up top line and powerplay minutes with no competition on a non-competitive team?

Lots of players in the NHL who would not only be a better fit, but also a much stronger drive to win.

Yama+Kulak+1st + prospect

With Puljujarvi gone, you don't even have to include Kulak. The money works.

 

[TGOSnipes99]

Arizona is the 3rd team helping out Ny to get Kane

Weird, seems like a you and Domi thing. But he would fit fine in the top-6. He's got skill, grit and would come cheap.

Yeah like to me Kulak should be acceptable as the contract going back.

It has like sub $8m real dollars left and he is a serviceable D who would be their best Ld prob

 

[McJadeddog]

No Movement Clauses are a hell of thing.

Yup, NMCs give the player all the power, and you see the result here.

The deadcap kings. Pathetic organization.

To Arizona: 2013, Shaefer, Tampa 2013 3rd

To Nashville: Yamamoto

To Edmonton: Cychrun

 

[Canovin]

I don't blame Kane. I have a soft spot for NYC too

 

[CupofOil]

Seravalli says thats why we were quiet with Chychrun yesterday. They didn't want to take on money (JP is my guess). Well now he's moved..

The Oilers still have to move money to fit in Chychrun so they'll have to make another move to clear out $2m or so. I don't even think they can afford to waive anybody because they're running a 20 man roster as is so something else will have to give.

 

[LTIR]

Sure, if we want to send Broberg back down to AHL . Was thinking more of roster spot and not cap.

 

[Broberg Speed]

let's go for Provorov

Yeah it seems some of these gm’s aren’t understanding the realities of the leagues cap situation.
